Here is an alternative for a healthy affordable meal: Souplantation. Have a salad topped with their low cal honey mustard dressing, low fat chicken noodle soup (skip the noodles) and finish it with some cottage cheese topped with fruit.  If you are up for a cheat day, how about a baked potato topped with their chili, chives and bacon bits, or the clam chowder with scallions and bacon bits. Add a little garlic foccacia and some chocolate chip-cookie-frozen-vanilla-yogurt mini-sandwiches and you got yourself a craving killer of a meal. indulge!

DIET Alert!: Keep it Extra, Extra! lean

 So a few weeks ago we went to Barnes and Noble and on a whim bought Mario Lopez's new book extra lean. After all, the guy is living proof of the extra leanness mantra. We have been soooo pleasantly surprised. The book outlines your daily menus for several weeks with fresh and delicious recipes that are easy and quick to prepare. I REALLY recommend this book if you want to loose a few pounds....with a 1200 calorie daily maximum no exercise is required! Plus you got plenty of inspiration from the color pages....

Ay papi que rico!
